Men And Crying

Damn.

"Men" not "mean"

nope, crying is for the ladies

only when i orgasm.

I cry sometimes. Not all the time but occasionally in movies I'll let some tears role. You feel like a little girl when you do sometimes, but at the same time it feels pretty good to let some emotions out.

My girlfriend (who is a very emotional woman herself) doesn't mind if she turns and sees me crying. She says that one of the big problems in our society today is that men are exptected to keep their emotions locked inside them. She says that she is often glad she's not a man because woman are allowed to shoe their emotions and are not looked down on if the cry.

Just my thoughts, call me a baby if you want or a girl, but I think crying is okay for guys once in a while.

you cried?

for Friday Night Lights?

look, my parents beat me and all, but shit I never cried when they did. And even when they said sorry for doing it last year. I didn't cry when my Cat or Dog died.

you just don't cry.

wow, not only are you the coolest person in the world, you also the most manly.

how do you justify a statement 'you just dont cry' without being an ignorant moron? Call me a sissy or whatever you need to fuflfil your ego, and let me assure you that I also can't remember the last time I cried, but if something drove me to cry tonight I certainly wouldn't think any less of myself for it. It's an outpouring of emotion. Now crying for physical pain is a different story, but that stops at about age 7 max. There is NO other possible justification for thinking it's not 'manly' to cry.

Anyway, thanks for divulging the information about your parents .... it explains a lot

wow manduro, you really are a little crying girl

I really cant cry its not a choice or anything but I physically cant seem to do it. I've tried on several occasions at very emoitional times but its impossible. Honestly has anyone else ever heard of or had this issue?

i just get angry at everything

There are definately times to cry. I cried for months after my son died 15 years ago. Once in awhile I still cry for that great loss. Any bereaved parent will tell you the same thing.

how old was your son?

I used to never ever cry maybe once a year if that, then I was diagnosed with depression and it became an everday occurance sometimes more than one cry in a day. I cried less and less as I came out of it, and now I rarely cry once again.

WOW...

that is my worst nightmare. The fact that you responded to this post blows my mind. It's people like you who add needed perspective to rudderless lives.

I cried when my wife passed away; I still cry sometimes when I think of her and what a loving, wonderful, happy person she was and what she meant to me. Much was taken away. I will never love like that again.

This made me cry.

Oh sure.

At funerals. That's about it.

I take that back. The strongest dad thing almost did it deep down inside.
